I personal like hard-scoping because of its reliability, and no-scoping because of its speed. What is your favourite method of sniping and why?

Typical Waypoint post.
no it's "its got to go" you wouldn't say the "it is got to go" would you?

Missing every damn shot.

When I play to win I voice message people call outs.

Quickscoping for most occasions, but if I'm watching long hall then I'll just hard scope.

I assume hard scoping is just sniping normally? If so then that's me

For scoping, all of the above. It depends on distance/situation.

For aiming, I tend to predict where they will be and fire on red reticle. Snap shooting almost always means missed bullets for me :/

I'm so bad with a shotgun, I'd rather a sniper in CQC.

No scoping.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Hard/normally sniping, and then missing the shot when the enemy goes into super-seizure-strafing-mode.

Always up for REACH customs!

What the heck is the point of quick-scoping? I know it's something from COD but how does it help?

Its essentially snapping to a fixed point almost immediately. See a guy, give your reticule a quick flick up and dome away.

Flicking is very inconsistant, and ussually less experienced snipers do this. Better to have more control over ur reticule.

ZomG, for those people wanting to know everything, this is not my Main tag anymore, (McCrash IS for Posting on B.net)

Original XbL Gamertag, zeDutchKreatiVz, as you guessed, Im Dutch/from Holland/Amsterdam.

...Also wTf happened to Halo.......*sighs*

-_- I couldn't vote all of the above cuz of Hard scoping.

the reason why is that on EVERY map with 2 snipes, I won't take longer than 2,5 - 3 seconds zoomed in, because of worries that the other sniper'll take me down. I ALWAYS go for the other sniper first, and keep an eye on the spot I killed him so that he won't pick it up. therefor I always look around (no-scope) and then when I do see someone... Quick Scope him, which btw I usually hit.

I'm so fatigued from all the defecation, but I don't want to go to sleep because I don't want to s.hit the bed. WAT DO

Quickscoping because it's what kills you the most in our 1v1's.
